Introduction Springtime in Holland brings up the image of blooming fields of millions of flowers. We have

organised a one day tour not only to take a closer look behind the flourishing Dutch flower industry,

but a day where you will experience spring in its real sense. You will never again see so much flowers

in one day !

Dutch Flowers in spring

Program: We will meet you early in the lobby of your hotel to go to the world's largest flower auction in

Aalsmeer, the hub of this Dutch billion-dollar industry including flower growers, auction houses,

public gardens that showcase the flowers; and the museums and private gardens that celebrate the

horticultural tradition and attract visitors from all over the world.

From the auction house we continue our drive through the Bollenstreek an area full of of flower

fields, with stripes of differently coloured flowers in the flat Dutch landscape.

In the little town of Lisse we visit the Keukenhof Garden, which started as the small kitchen (keuken)

garden of a 15th-century countess. Build out over the centuries it now presents itself as nothing less

than the most beautiful spring garden in the world, designed to showcase the art of Dutch bulb

growers. Spilling across 28 hectares of wooded parkland the Keukenhof attracts more than 700,000

visitors annually.

The garden has 14 kilometres of walking paths that wind around ponds, a windmill, greenhouse

pavilions holding indoor displays, and more than seven million bulbs planted three layers deep to

ensure a blaze of colour from the end of March to mid-May.

We end the tour again in Amsterdam where the driver will bring you to your hotel. Optionally we can

also introduce you to some of the world famous florists in Amsterdam.
